7 alarm bells that signal you really need a life coach

Posted on May 10, 2022 by Maria Govinda Ivashchenko, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.

Many people ask me, how do I understand for sure that I need a coach?

I remember my first experience with a coach. Uh! That was soo boosting. I was surprised on how much can I really know about my situation and how much real power I have to improve my life. So working with a coach is definitely a valuable investment in your personal and professional development that will bring you investment returns up to 1 year.

But, before to make a smart investment you have to understand;
what is right source of investments
when is a proper time to make it

I would like to go deeper with a second one. I call it ‘life signals’ that really tell you, “Hey, dear, you need to ask for help.”

Let’s check the following signals with your internal feelings:

You get bogged down with your everyday routine: job, home, family, and the next day the same. Sometimes it’s ok, but at some point in your life it removes the colors. If you ask yourself what are you doing and why – you wouldn’t be able to answer the questions clearly. You feel that you simply lost the feeling that you are actually living your life

You have a great goal and a lot of things to do, but you feel like an octopus in a string bag – so many priorities and many strong desires to get everything done in one go. What happens instead? You feel stuck and confused when it comes to starting something

You know what to do.You have learned from so many self-care and personal development books, explored many life-efficiency tools, BUT you are still at the same spot in your life, because you don’t know exactly on how to apply the tools specifically to your situation

You find yourself alone, lacking support in your life-goals, you don’t have a “partner in crime” with whom you can dream, share and discuss the most daring and brave ideas. It feels like you’re missing that support on your path to your goals

You literally tried everything to change your life but don’t understand why you can’t move any further. Finally you’re coming to understanding that you need some momentum for a shift

You start asking yourself questions – where am I? What do I really want in my life? How do I get there? Because of racing deadlines, you don’t have an opportunity to sit and just answer them properly.

For the last time you have so many tribulations in your life that have shaken your will, motivation, and balance. You can call it procrastination, anxiety or low energy. It Doesn’t matter which, what matters is that you don’t feel like the author of your life, but feel weak and fragile instead.

All these situations are not a sentence that you have to put up with and carry it like a ton of bricks through life. These are the alarm bells to make a fresh start with full power. In partnership with a life coach, you can resolve these issues in 4-12 coaching sessions, depending on the individual.

How many did you count for yourself? Or which one rang the loudest and pushed you to take action?
